Cleaning exhaust tips

Hey guys, I have the ETS V2 with HFC and the tips get real dirty. Whats the best way to clean the carbon off and get them all shiny again, any particular cleaner thats good for breaking down the carbon? I was thinking maybe wheel cleaner would work?

should be in the show and shine section,

use a metal polish, such as chemical guys heavy duty metal polish

if its really bad, use 0000 steel wool with a lubricant like glass cleaner or wd-40, then rinse with water,

then follow with the polish

Get an All Purpose Cleaner and spray it on the exhaust tip and agitate it with a brush. If that doesn't do the trick use #0000 steel wool on it then use another piece with metal polish and buff to a shine and while away residue with a clean microfiber.
